Synopsis
According to USP 797, “compounding personnel are responsible for ensuring that compounded sterile preparations (CSPs) are accurately identified, measured, diluted and mixed, and are correctly purified, sterilized, packaged, sealed, labeled, stored, dispensed, and distributed.”1 Given this, you need to be certain your sterile compounding personnel have the requisite knowledge and resources. It is untenable to assume your staff can conform to these strict guidelines simply because they have the proper academic credentials.
